Kelly Oubre: Likely back to bench role Friday

After missing Wednesday’s overtime win over the Nets with a sore right calf,
Markieff Morris took part in shootaround Friday morning and indicated he’ll play
later in the evening, so it appears likely will take back his normal starting
role, leaving no room on the top unit for Oubre. Despite receiving 33 minutes as
the starting small forward Wednesday, Oubre was a non-entity, scoring no points
(0-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 0-2 FT) to go with three rebounds and one steal. Look for
Oubre’s minutes to drop back to the 22-to-28 range now that Morris is back in
action.
